first off, im new to all pc stuff
also, pic semi-related
so i bought a pc about a month and a half ago and it was able to run any game i threw at it at 60 fps+ on max settings. for some reason, about a week ago, my pc started to run games poorly, getting around 10-20 fps. now, a lot of my games are severely unplayable. to give a reference, about a week ago, i could play fallout 4 at 60 fps on ultra, now i get 20-25 on low. i have my gpu driver updated, so im not sure what could be causing the problems. wtf happened?

Are you cleaning the insides?

Ctrl+Shift+Esc, look at Processes and Performance tabs.

i just bought this pc a month and a half ago, i dont think i have to clean it right now. my friends with pcs say they clean theirs once a year
Hmm, it sounds like maybe your GPU needs its vram cleaned, and maybe a change of bearing fluid for the fan
install gentoo
format and reinstall, you've loaded it down with malware
alternatively, go to reddit.com/r/techsupport and see if they'll help you
Perhaps your GPU ate shit or you're just bloated with malware

yep, pretty much this.
either that or your capacitors need recharging,
any electrician can do this for you.

Whats your OS? Did you upgrade to Windows 10? If so, try going back to Windows 7 and see if results are any different
